Murphy
|
Murphy was
rescued from under an office building in Woodbury, GA in 1998. He
was only a few weeks old at the time and he had to fed with a
bottle. He loves fetching tinfoil balls and playing with his kitty
toys. |
Murphy was diagnosed with feline hypertension
in early 2000. This caused him to loose his sight for a couple of
days. Although rare in young cats, hypertension can cause a sudden
onset of retinal blindness. We first noticed that his pupils were
totally dilated and then noticed that he would bump into things and
trip over our feet. Fortunately, our vet was able to find the
problem and give him medication to lower his blood pressure. Murphy
has an active life despite taking his "kitty high blood pressure
medicine" twice a day.

We adopted Lady from a
friend in January 1998. She spends most of her time sleeping
although she loves to be held. Her favorite place to catch a cat nap
is on the back of the couch. |

Salem
Oscar
|
We found Salem
and Oscar near an abandoned mobile home. They were just kittens when
we first met, so we would take them kitten food and water every
afternoon. After a few months, we decided to adopt both of
them.
Salem is a shy kitty, but she loves
attention. She loves to nip lightly at the back of your leg when she
wants to be noticed.
Oscar enjoys relaxing in his window
cat bed and lounging in our lap when he gets the
chance. |

Roxy and Buddy were
rescued from an abandoned house in 1999. We fed them every day for a
few months until we gained their trust.
Roxy loves to splash around in her
wading pool and wrestle with Buddy and Jack.
Buddy enjoys digging holes and
chasing Roxy around the back yard.
We met Jack through a client and
immediately fell in love with him. We were fortunate enough to adopt
him in February 2001. Jack is very active as is the case with
Jack Russell Terriers. He loves to play with Buddy and Roxy.
When he is not snoozing in his dog bed you can usually find him
throwing his stuffed toys around in the air for you to catch. .His
favorite past time is riding in the car.
(Funny how all of these pictures
show their tongues hanging out)

Cleo
Mouse
Maggie
|
On May 11, 2000, Salem
had Cleo, Mouse, and Maggie..We were going to find homes for all
three kitties, but we grew too attached to them. So here they are,
the three musketeers: Cleo, Mouse, and Maggie.
We enjoy watching them play
together, and they really give our "older" kitties a run for their
money. |
